“To clarify, the composition of the more than 5,000 personnel currently on the Southwest Border (and growing to approximately 6,000 by March 1) is comprised of both Active Duty and National Guard personnel,” the Pentagon said in a statement. “Specifically, approximately 2,100 personnel are National Guard and the rest are Active Duty.”

I’m not surprised at the Military Police units and U.S. Army Engineer battalions, but then there’s a Battalion of Infantry, a Calvary Battalion, a few companies of Marines and another Battalion of Field Artillery.
